2.99 a lb Chinese buffet

[ErnieDeBord]

We have a "greasy spoon" Chinese place near here, 2.99 a lb buffet bar for take out, I usually get 5.40 dollars worth, about once every 2 weeks, I fig it has to be good for you ( will be 61 in a couple days) cuzz the Chinese live forever. About a year ago we got a "rescue" kitty kat, which me & the wife love. lately I been noticing that the Chinese "chicken on a stick" looks a LOT like my kittys legs when she walks across the room. I don't go there as often, regards Ernie

I was just ready to say that is a very good price for stir fried cat!

"I fig it has to be good for you ( will be 61 in a couple days) cuzz the Chinese live forever"

Main problem with that assumption is that I doubt the Chinese food in China is anything like the Chinese food served in a typical U. S. Chinese buffet restaurant. $2.99/lb is pretty cheap if it includes meat. About the cheapest good Chinese buffet anywhere near where I live is about $10/person, not including tax and tip, and with the senior discount. I try not to go there very often as I eat too much, especially from the Mongolian barbecue bar. My wife eats nothing there but shrimp, but she still gets her money's worth.

Sounds cheap!
But if you like it, that's what really counts.

Many years ago my then teenage daughter and I were enjoying some General Tso's chicken.
My daughter casually mentioned, "you know this really doesn't taste like chicken does it?
And it didn't.

I've heard that Chinese food in China is just called "food."

Sometimes it's best not to ask

Anyone else noticed that most Chinese buffets everywhere seem to have much the same items? Maybe they all use the same recipe book.

How much does a Chinese restaurant weigh?

Wait for it:

Chinese Chicken...

Chicken....sea gull. No difference.

I've worked in the food service industry for over 30 years as a restaurant equipment tech. I've been in the back door of more than my fair share of Chinese restaurants.
I wouldn't eat in one of them even with a gun to my head!!

Chinese food is just food cooked a bit different. You are right cat does not taste like chicken, and dog does not taste like chicken or beef; more like mutton.

I've had real Chinese food. This stuff here ain't it

 

[Salty RI]

Every time I came home with take out Chinese, our cat would take off and not come back home for a week.

Ever notice they are always near an animal hospital and they have no dumpster?
